A high-level meeting chaired by Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Saturday decided to enhance the Forest department’s camera surveillance network for monitoring wildlife movement in preserves abutting human habitations in the State.
Mr. Vijayan had convened an emergency meeting of top forest and police officials in the wake of the violent protests in Wayanad following the fatal wild elephant attack on Paul, 52, an eco-tourism guide at Pulpally, on Friday.
He also reviewed the law and order situation in the Wayanad district after the executive magistrate clamped prohibitory orders until Monday.
